Royal Wedding 2018: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will wed on Saturday

Meghan and Prince Harry will wed in a relatively low-key ceremony compared to previous royal events, with the chapel having a capacity of 800 guests, compared to Westminster Abbey — where Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton married — with 2,000.

Fans will be able to tune in to plenty of TV coverage of the big day, with the BBC, ITV and Sky all airing the ceremony.

The BBC will begin live coverage at 9am, with Dermot O’Leary, Kirsty Young and Hew Edwards, while ITV’s kicks off at 9.25am with Phillip Schofield and Julie Etchingham.

Sky will have Kay Burley and Anna Bottling at the helm from the beginning.
